  • No concern for long term listeners

    Even after reporting that a sound effect they are using between segments is so sickening that it is difficult to listen, they continue to use it months later. I won't be listening to this podcast anymore.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Annie: The Device Helping Blind Children Read and Write
Q: Could you walk us through how Annie actually works and what makes it different from traditional Braille teaching methods?
Annie combines self-guided, gamified lessons with voice guidance to teach Braille reading, writing, and typing, enabling students to learn with less direct teacher supervision and to progress between visits; it also provides real-time teacher feedback and scalable classroom use.
Mainstream: Canada's Cyber Siege & GTA 6's Accessibility Quest
Q: How fast are attackers moving now, and what does that imply for defense strategies?
Attackers operate within a 24 to 48 hour window, much faster than in the past, which means defenses must be capable of rapid identification, triage, and response, often leveraging AI-powered security operations centers to keep up.
Mainstream: Canada's Cyber Siege & GTA 6's Accessibility Quest
Q: Before we dive in, what does your day-to-day look like in threat intelligence and incident response?
I oversee global threat intelligence, pulling near real-time data from a vast intelligence lake, coordinating both automation and human triage to track attacks and provide early warnings while also conducting forensic analysis and coordinating incident response.
Building Accessibility: iPass, Curb to Car, and AI Solutions
Q: What is iPass and who is it designed for?
It is a small, lightweight perception device for people with heavy visual impairment or blindness, designed to be held in the hand and used to quickly understand the surrounding environment through sound feedback.
Weekend: Lumin - The Voice‑First Email App
Q: Are there plans for Android, Windows, Mac support?
Yes, Android, Windows, and Mac support are in the roadmap, with a focus first on delivering a strong iPhone experience as proof of concept.
